I need a man - Eurythmics

When I ordered a few singles from the UK I accidentally also ordered this one, because I thought I didn't have it. Obviously I did: I bought 'I need a man' a mere six years ago. But! It was a different sleeve and a different B-side. And this one is just too good to go. We call it 'bijvangst' in Dutch. 

And so, here is 'I need a man' again, with the alternative B-side 'I need you'. It's different from the US edition, and that's because this one was made in the UK.

Fallen angel - Robbie Robertson

I recently rediscovered Robbie Robertson's singles and then I realized that one was still missing from my collection. It's 'Fallen Angel', a track from the same album that contains 'Somewhere down the crazy river' and 'Showdown at big sky'. Both are excellent, but this one even more so. I mean, it contains vocals by Peter Gabriel! 

'Fallen angel' was actually the second single taken from Robbie's self-titled album, and also the least successful, inexplicably. It only made it to number 95 in the UK singles chart. Some things are just too weird for me.

My collection: 7" single no. 7575
